Diagnosis and treatment of adults with community‐acquired pneumonia. An official clinical practice guideline of the American Thoracic Society and Infectious Diseases Society of America

Update of 2007 guidelines

Different format and approach but few changes in management

Epidemiology: Acute Lower Respiratory Tract Infections

In U.S., influenza and pneumonia 8th most common cause of death per the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (moved up from 9th in 2010)

55,672 deaths in 2017

Most common cause of death from infectious disease

Among those 85 and older, at least 1 in 20 hospitalized each year

Epidemiology: Acute Lower Respiratory Tract Infections

Inpatient mortality rate: may be influenced by coding

From 2003 – 2009, mortality rate for principal diagnosis pneumonia decreased from 5.8% to 4.2%

More patients coded with principal diagnosis sepsis or respiratory failure and secondary diagnosis pneumonia

Using all codes, little change in mortality rate

Lindenauer et al, JAMA 2012;307:1405‐13

Outpatient mortality < 1%; about 80% of CAP treated in outpatient setting

Diagnosis Chest radiograph – needed in all cases?

Avoid over‐treatment with antibiotics 

Differentiate from other conditions

Specific etiology, e.g. tuberculosis

Co‐existing conditions, such as lung mass or pleural effusion

Evaluate severity, e.g. multilobar 

Unfortunately, chest physical exam not sensitive or specific and significant variation between observers

Microbiological Investigation

Sputum Gram stain and culture 30‐40% patients cannot produce adequate sample 

Most helpful if single organism in large numbers

Culture (if adequate specimen): antibiotic sensitivities

Limited utility after antibiotics for most common organisms

Usually unnecessary in outpatients – 2019 guideline recommends against

May be most helpful in severe CAP and/or when treatment for MRSA or P. aeruginosa is considered

Severe Pneumonia

Page 6: 01 Winston CAP - UCSF CME · 2020. 2. 11. · Prediction rule to identify low risk patients with CAP Stratify into one of 5 classes Class I: age

Obtain blood cultures?

Not recommended in outpatients

Obtain prior to antibiotics

Positive in 5 – 14% of hospitalized patients

Obtain with severe disease ‐most important predictor

2019 guidelines also recommend when empirically treating for MRSA or P. aeruginosa

Legionella and Pneumococcal Urinary Antigen Testing? 

Evaluation for Legionella Urinary antigen test for L. pneumophila serogroup 1 (70‐90%)

Can also culture with selective media

Probably most helpful in severe disease or with epidemiologic risk (e.g., recent travel, suspected outbreak)

Pneumococcal urinary antigen test Simple, takes about 15 minutes

In adults, sensitivity 50‐80%, specificity ~90%

Consider in severe CAP

Page 7: 01 Winston CAP - UCSF CME · 2020. 2. 11. · Prediction rule to identify low risk patients with CAP Stratify into one of 5 classes Class I: age

Other Microbiological Investigation?

Influenza testing

Treatment likely provides benefit for many

Test when influenza is circulating in the community

Multiplex PCR systems for respiratory pathogens

Benefit uncertain

Procalcitonin?

Procalcitonin is produced in response to endotoxin and endogenous mediators released in the setting of bacterial infections

Rises in bacterial infections much more than, e.g., viral infections or inflammatory states

Rises and falls quickly

Procalcitonin‐guided treatment in acute respiratory infections may decrease antibiotic exposure and might improve outcomes, particularly in the ICU

Decreased antibiotic exposure was not seen in large ED RCT

Not recommended to guide decision to start antibiotics

Is coverage of “atypical” organisms important?

In Europe, amoxicillin commonly used as a single drug with data supporting a short course (3 days in responding patients)

Some studies show no benefit of empirical atypical coverage on survival or clinical efficacy in hospitalized patients

• Two RCTs evaluated beta-lactam + macrolide combination therapy vs. beta-lactam monotherapy – includes study prior slide• One failed to demonstrate non-inferiority of monotherapy

• 6 of 8 observational studies favored beta-lactam + macrolidecombination therapy vs. beta-lactam monotherapy

• 3 of 3 observational studies favored fluoroquinolone monotherapyover beta-lactam monotherapy

*Based on these data, 2019 guidelines do not recommend beta-lactammonotherapy for inpatients

Smoking cessation Smoking, with or without COPD, is a significant risk factor

But, what happened to healthcare‐associated pneumonia (HCAP)?

Page 26: 01 Winston CAP - UCSF CME · 2020. 2. 11. · Prediction rule to identify low risk patients with CAP Stratify into one of 5 classes Class I: age

Am J Respir Crit Care Med 2005;171:388-416

The concept of HCAP has been removed – why?• Increasing evidence that most patients with HCAP are not at

high risk for resistant pathogens• Other features besides exposure to the healthcare system

may be important• May be covered by new CAP guidelines However, concept of HCAP as an entity not maintained

Page 27: 01 Winston CAP - UCSF CME · 2020. 2. 11. · Prediction rule to identify low risk patients with CAP Stratify into one of 5 classes Class I: age

Practical tips for HCAP

Most patients with “HCAP” can be treated like CAP

Consider expanded initial therapy if

Severely ill

History of resistant organism or other risk factors such as extensive antibiotic exposure

Knowledge of local flora/resistance patterns is helpful

If using expanded therapy, prioritize microbiologic diagnosis

De‐escalate based on results 

2016 guidelines: take home points for both HAP and VAP

Perform microbiologic testing – preferred over empirical therapy

Obtain non‐invasively – expectorated, induced sputum, endotracheal aspirate

BAL, mini‐BAL, protected‐brush specimens not recommended

Not recommended for decision to initiate therapy

Procalcitonin

C‐reactive protein

Clinical Pulmonary Infection Score (CPIS)

Most patients should be treated for 7 days

Page 28: 01 Winston CAP - UCSF CME · 2020. 2. 11. · Prediction rule to identify low risk patients with CAP Stratify into one of 5 classes Class I: age

2016 guidelines: initial treatment of HAP (based on very low quality evidence) Use local pathogen and antibiotic resistance data

Cover MRSA in selected patient

Prior IV antibiotics within 90 days

> 20 of S. aureus isolates on unit are MRSA

High risk of mortality

Cover Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Double coverage of P. aeruginosa with risk factors

Prior IV antibiotics within 90 days

High risk for mortality

2016 guidelines: initial treatment of HAP (based on very low quality evidence)

Not at high risk of mortality and no risk factors increasing likelihood of MRSA (cover MSSA and P. aeruginosa)

2016 guidelines: initial treatment of VAP 

Use local pathogen and antibiotic resistance data

Do not treat ventilator‐associated tracheobronchitis with antibiotics

2016 guidelines: initial treatment of VAP (based on very low quality evidence) Cover S. aureus, P. aeruginosa, and other Gram‐negative bacilli in all empirical regimens

Cover MRSA with vancomycin or linezolid when > 10 – 20% of S. aureus isolates in unit are MRSA

Use two antipseudomonal antibiotics if

• Prior IV antibiotic use within 90 days• Septic shock• ARDS preceding VAP• 5 or more days of hospitalization preceding VAP

• > 10% of Gram negative isolates resistant to planned monotherapy

• Susceptibility rates unknown
